Trivia[]

  • OVER-1 bears a striking resemblance to X, including having his pose from the first three games and facial structures. Besides being partially created by Dr. Light, this is most likely due to OVER-1's sprites being based on X's sprites from the iOS version of Mega Man X.
  • According to Kenta Saito:[1]
    • OVER-1's name comes from the fact that he was designed with various armors to go "over" his body. Dr. Cossack got OVER-1's design concept from a matryoshka doll.
    • Conceptually, OVER-1 was created with a more advanced AI than any other robot, being capable of adapting to any situation by changing armor parts. As a result, his CPU has to endure an incredibly heavy burden, overheating being a serious issue and rendering him more vulnerable to external heat sources. Saito was able to provide a sufficient heat sink by adjusting the internal components of his torso. His neck is also quite vulnerable to physical damage, the fur being added to protect his neck from physical harm and external heat, and to make his silhouette more unique.
    • The armor system brought to light the CPU overheating issues, and that is what led Dr. Light to develop the armor system for X where his armor parts are exchanged rather than layered on top of one another.
  • According to Keisuke Mizuno: [7]
    • The view of the world are mixed, so when Dr. Cossack designed the OVER-Z armor, he based it on Zero's Mega Man X and Mega Man Zero designs of.
    • Mizuno took care to not make OVER-Z to simply look like a Zero cosplay; to still make it look like Zero even without the hair and still have a sense of swiftness.
    • Originally, since beam weapons were introduced in 21XX, they were not planned to the setting. The ban has since been lifted due to the addition of OVER-B. Later introduced armors would then have beam weapons.
  • OVER-1 took two days for Kenta Saito to design, with the other forms taking a day each afterwards. Saito designed OVER-2 to OVER-4. Keisuke Mizuno designed OVER-5.
    • OVER-4 was designed around 2 or 3 weeks before Kamen Rider Wizard was announced, much to Saito's creative regret. As he felt the beat him to the punch. [1]
  • Producer Hirokazu Matsuura wanted OVER-6 to 9 to capture the look of a certain 1990s fantasy robot anime. This anime may refer to the Madö King Granzört.
  • OVER-1 is the second main protagonist in the franchise to not debut on a Nintendo console. The first is MegaMan Volnutt, who debuted on the PlayStation.
  • Due to being a special creation like X or Zero, his Robot Master serial number, if he has one, is unknown.
